Step One
Completely clean and dry wall area where vinyl image is to be placed. For best results do not use a a cleaner that will leave behind residue. This is how your vinyl wall art will come shipped to you.
Note:: Please make sure you smooth over the transfer paper a few times to ensure that the vinyl wall art is still stuck to it good. I smooth over it many times before shipment, but its better for you to run over it a few times as well.
Step Two
Peel backing off vinyl slowly.
Step Three
Lightly place image on wall using a level to ensure correct placement. Once image is in place, user applicator stick to burnish* vinyl onto wall. For best results overlapping strockes when burnishing.
*Burnishing is a rubbing or polishing action that used an applicator stick or squeegee to spread or apply the vinyl to the wall.Step Four
Gently peel back transfer tape at a 45 degree angle. If vinyl starts to come off with transfer tape, lay area back down and burnish* again.

Step Five
After peeling away transfer paper check for any air bubbles that you may have between the wall and vinyl. If you don't have any then you are a very good at this..but if you do have a few bubbles.. don't worry. Just use the burnishing* method and try and smooth out any air bubbles you may have.
